And to all those people that said bs its just price jacking. to an extent you are correct. However there is a reason. The gulf produces 25 percent of the united states oil, and every oil rig out there was evacuated of workers, thusly we have been loosing 300 million or so gallons of oil (mabye it was barrels) each day they have been out. and now that they are going back it will be another few days before the workers can asses damages and begin refining the crude oil again. So 25% of our oil is down for about a 5-6 day period. I call that reason to jack the prices, weather I like it or not. and I dont. I figure around october the expensive prices are sosposed to drop. and That gas stations is overreacting the gas stations were dirrected to raise the price nationally 50 cents from 2.50 or what ever it happens to be at the station to 3.00 or whatever. jumping a dollar is an over reaction and price gauging from the gas station.
